 +CASTING CAST
  
 +Usage: CAST [force] <spell name> [damage level] [target]
 +
 +
 +There are many different ways to use the cast command. Careful reading of this help file is
 +recommended.
 +
 +Force is the force you wish to cast the spell at, this is optional. Leaving this value out will mean
 +you cast the spell at the maximum force you know. You cannot cast a spell at a force higher than you 
 +know it.
 +
 +The spell name can either be typed as one word on its own, or as multiple words in quotes. Refer to
 +the examples at the bottom of the file for more help.
 +
 +Damage level is only used in spells that cause damage. You have the choice of the standard Shadowrun
 +damage levels of Light, Moderate, Serious and Deadly. This affects how much damage the spell does 
 +and also how much drain you take.
 +
 +The target of the spell can be any valid target, not all spells require a target.
 +
 +Here are some examples:
 +< 10P 10M > cast 3 Invisibility self
 +This will cast the spell Invisibility at a force of 3 on yourself.
 +< 10P 10M > cast 3 "Improved Invisibility" self
 +This will cast the spell Improved Invisibility at a force of 3 on yourself.
 +< 10P 10M > cast light
 +The light spell doesn't require a target, so using this syntax is fine.
 +< 10P 10M > cast manabolt serious lonestar
 +This will cast the manabolt spell at a Lone Star officer with a base damage of Serious.
 +
 +Note that you can RITUALCAST spells to achieve maximum successes. See HELP RITUALCAST for more.
